  • Modified Murph – from Thumb War

    Warmup:

    SSH
    Low slow squats
    Grass grabbers
    Arm circles F & B
    Seal claps
    MNC
    Peter Parkers
    Mountain climbers

    Original plan was to run 2 laps around the track, but since the gate was locked we moseyed the outer path the long route to the new playground equipment.

    There we partnered up for a half Murphy and modified some.

    Collectively in total with your partner:

    50 pull ups
    100 push ups
    150 Air squats
    200 LBC’s

    Rules were that you could give your partner a spot for pull ups, but during the other exercises, you had to be either planking or super manning while the other worked.

    This went quicker than I expected so we added a round of Bench dips IC.

    We then concluded the Murph with a run to the rock pile where each person got a rock for the following:

    2 rounds –

    1st round:
    20 Curls
    20 Thrusters
    20 Rows

    2nd round:
    10 Curls
    10 Thrusters
    10 Rows

    We add got on our sixes for presses with our rocks until I was told we were approaching 6:15 so we wrapped up and got back to the flag for COT.

    Enjoyed leading as I continue to be more consistent and accurate with my counts. Thanks Mr. Rodgers for asking me to lead and thanks for encouraging the fallen warrior inspired workouts.

    Shocker. I’m I had some music critics in the Pax. Bogey called a skip for penalty burpees. Hopefully Mahatma has learned more about New Orleans’ own Grammy award winning Jon Batiste.

  • Even the Q Get’s Confused – from Architect

  • Honoring a Fallen Hero on Spy Wednesday – from Mayhem

    Disclaimer given to a party of 4, then 6, then HG arrived during warmarama giving us 7 to celebrate and remember… and Tenderloin

    Mosey to the parking lot
    AV, GG, PPP, MC, CC (Crab Cakes, a favorite of YHC)
    Then some arm stuff- AC, RAC, SC, OC, SL

    Mosey to the stands
    Site Q (@Mr. Rogers) has called for El Diablo this year to remember Fallen Heros
    We honored U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Edwardo Loredo with the Loredo workout
    He was killed 6/24/10

    The Thang:
    Rd1, Rd3, Rd5-
    24 squats
    24 merkins
    24 lunges

    Rd2, Rd4, Rd6-
    24 Bobby Hurley
    24 merkins
    24 Bonnie Blair
    400 meter run

    Six rounds = 6th month of his passing
    24 reps = 24th of the month

    Ended with some Mary-
    Flutter kicks, x-factor, crunchy frog, protractor (and maybe one more?)

    COT
    Welcome back Sanbro
    Prayers for WP’s daughter and Tenderloin’s Glenda who “caught the dementia”

    Today is Spy Wednesday, so with the Holy Tridium upon us, remember the reason for the season

    Thanks for letting me lead on my birthday. SYITG.

  • Blimpity-Blimps – from Rudy

    8 PAX started Wednesday in the cool damp gloom. Even after a shellacking of his beloved Ole Miss, Hand Grenada was casting aspersions upon the Irish even as we got started. Yelling about schedule strength on the week Ole Miss is playing UL Monroe? The man has no shame.

    Mosey to the rock pile for some slow cadence stretches to get loosened up. Then grab a rock and head to the field.

    Thang 1: Given a choice between the Suck and Mystery Door #1, Vagabond chooses the Suck. 4 minutes of “7 Overhead, 7 Curls, 7 Rows”. Rinse and repeat as many times as you can calling out each time you complete a set. Mayhem must have had a tiny rock as he was knocking out sets with alarming frequency.

    Thang 2: BLIMPS. Put the rocks aside. 4 Cones lined up at 20 yard intervals. Each exercise will be repeated 4 times, once at each cone. 5 Burpees, 10 Lunges, 15 Imperial Walkers, 20 Merkins, 25 Penguins, 30 Squats. It was rightly pointed out that YHC was unlikely to be able to complete 80 Merkins. And sure enough, I was last to complete that round. Mr. Rogers flew through all of them. Note to self: Make the workout harder for him.

    Thang 3: Given a choice between Partner and Mystery Door #2, Bogey chose Partner. So P1 will run to the far cone and back as the timer. P2 will be lifting the rock. Cycle through Overhead, Curl and Row.

    That’s it, out of time. Return the rocks and head back to the yard.

    Finish up with COT, remembering especially some friends and family struggling through illnesses.
